To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, ltlArrr-rnvv Gotten, e, citizen of the United States, residing" ct l hilsdelphi in the county of and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful llrnprovements in Heir-Pins, of which the following is s; specilicotion.

Une object of my invention is a heir pin which will have s' portion or portions so formed as to permit the easy movement of the pin into the hair, but will not as a check or lock to prevent the ontwsird increinentof the pin from the heir. 'lhns, c pin mode in accordance with my invention wil not accidentally fell out of the heir sitter once being inserted into the desired position. it further object is to moire my improved hair pins of comparatively simple construc tion and so that they can he manufactured and sold at a reasonably low cost,

These objects, and other advantageous ends which will be descrihed hereinafter, ll attain in the following manner, reterence being had to the accompanying drawing.

The head 42 of the hair pin has, on criteri sion e1 springing outwardly thcrelrorn, sci extension being bent in the direction or? one l3 of the pin, the cent portion ll of said extension losing specs loeyond the outer vide arecess 4:5 into which hair can enter from the side. A pin made in. accordance with rnyinvention canhe initially inserted into the hair up to the full extent of the head or" the pin so that practically the entire length of the pin can be inserted Within the hair. Furthermore, the .pin can be easily inserted Within or removed from the hair with one hand since there are no parts which actually pinch the hair or which require n severe or different pushing movement to insert the pin Within the heir.

' It will thus be understood that a hair pin made in accordance with my invention can be freely and easily inserted Within the hair, the function of the alcove described extensicn end recess not coming into play until the pin attempts to move outwardly. However, alter the pin hos'heen inserted entirely depict or thin no olitclnerl tor speclllcstion of Ztetters llntent.

Philcdelphio to provide I end of the head to pre lrntented Qlln-nell, idle,

florist its. lessor.

Within the hair, any attempt of the pin to accidentally move outwardly will he checked by the heirs 'vvhicli' rvi l enter the recess ll from the side end will he held between the head l2 and the extension ll.

While l have described my invention as taking a. porticnlnr term, it will he understood that the verio'us ports of in invention may he changed without departing lrom the spirit thereof, and hence l" do not limit myself to the precise construction set forth, but consider that l'. sni ot liberty to make such changes and sltemtions as fairly come Within the scope oil the appended claims.

Having, thus described my invention, What it claim as new and desire to secure hylietters Potent is:

l, A. heir pin having an extension springing outwardly from its head end bent in the direction of theside or said pin, said extension being spaced beyond the outer end of the head to provide at recess into which hair can enter from the side, substantially as descrihed.

2. in hair pin hsvinp; an extension springing outwardly trons the heard from a point locoted at one side of the central plane passing between the sides of the pin, said extension losing hent, from said springing point, in the direction of the side farthest removed therefrom, said extension being spaced beyond the outer end of the head to provide or recess into which hair can enter from the side, substantially as described.

3. A hair pin having on extension springing outwardly frorn'its head and bent in the direction of the side of said pin, said extension being spliced beyond the outer end of" the head to provide a recess into which hair can enter from the side, said extension being made integral with the portion of said pin which forms the head, substantially as described.
